Skin Problem

[PlRATE]

Hey,
When I download a skin and then import it to my map I don't really know what to do next.
I tried adding the skin imported file to the model of the unit I want, and it does not work please I well appreciate your help.
Thanks PlRATE. http://hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/skins/502/

You have to find the texture path relating to that unit's model, and set the path to that.

Eg, if you had a custom footman, you would set the import's path to

Textures\Footman.blp

and then use the Footman model.

Do I need to convert the Blp path to an MDX path? Or I just make the path to Textures\The name of the model, and then it well be converted to a model?

No you do not change blp to mdl. mdl is model and blp is blizzard pic. What would happen if you made a 2D picture a model? Most skins have the path of the skin it's replacing on the page. Like hte pirate you linked to, it has the path right there. It is: Units\Other\Proudmoore\Proudmoore.blp Yeah..... Here is a tut in case you still need help. http://hiveworkshop.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6530

If you set it as other/proudmoore...... it will work ONLY on the Proudmoore model, not any model. If it is not working still, you may have found a bad skin, although I doubt the Hive would allow that, I believe they have approved all of them.
